4:5 Tuplets

Due to the way the custom tuplet system is set up, there is no way for me to write tuplets with an odd denominator over three, currently done by tupleting a dotted note. (ie. 4 notes in the space of 3 eight notes). I would like to use 4:5 tuplets (four notes in the space of five eight notes in my case) for drumline music, but I can't seem to do it. Am I missing something? If not, I'd love to see it added.
Thanks!

In order for other tuples with a ration of 4:5 to work, you need a note or rest that lasts the duration of 5 quarter notes. The above link shows one way to make that happen, though there are other ways to do it.
